Laser
Liposuction
is
particularly
well-suited
for women
and men
who are of
relatively
normal
weight but
have
isolated
pockets of
fat that
cause
certain
areas of
their body
to appear
disproportionate.
These
localized
fat
deposits
may
sometimes
be an
inherited
trait and
typically
do not
respond to
dieting or
exercise.
Liposuction
is often
the only
way to
eliminate
them.
While it
is
possible
to undergo
laser
liposuction
at almost
any age,
you will
obtain the
best
results if
your skin
still has
enough
elasticity
to achieve
a smooth
contour
following
fat
removal.
When skin
is
inelastic,
as in some
older
patients,
it may not
re-drape
well and a
skin
tightening
procedure
may be
necessary.
Good
Candidates
for Laser
Liposuction
You may be
a good
candidate
for
liposuction
if you
have
localized
excess fat
or if you
desire
contouring
in any of
the
following
areas:
-
cheeks,
jowls
and
neck
-
upper
arms
-
breast
or
chest
areas
-
back
-
abdomen
and
waist
-
hips
and
buttocks
-
inner
and
outer
thighs
-
inner
knee
-
calves
and
ankles
Laser
Liposuction
may
sometimes
be used to
treat a
condition
called
gynecomastia,
or male
breast
enlargement,
which
frequently
occurs
among both
teenage
and adult
males.
Laser
Liposuction
should not
be
considered
a
substitute
for
overall
weight
loss, nor
is it an
effective
treatment
for
cellulite,
a
condition
that gives
the skin
an uneven,
dimpled
appearance.
Alternative
treatments
may be
considered,
in some
instances,
to improve
this
problem.
Laser
Liposuction
can be
performed
on several
areas of
the body
at the
same time,
and it can
also be
done in
conjunction
with other
cosmetic procedures.
